The fall/summer transition is the breaking point between deciding what fishing approach to take.

The majority of most bass anglers will chose to overlook the seasonal transition and standby until the water drops to a stable consistent temperature. Unfortunately the anglers that hold back are missing out on the perfect opportunity to squeeze in a few nice bass before the thick layer of warm clothes stays on permanently.
